//------------------------------// // Pinkies GrimDark Journal of Horrors pt Duex // Story: Shattered Harmony:Twilight Prevents Cupcakes // by NightmareTRXY32 //------------------------------// Twilight levitated the journal in front of the three of them, and picked up reading where she had left off at the Bakery. She could feel her stomach churned as she read the journal entry to the Princess and Rainbow Dash. She felt sick to her stomach again just like she had in the basement of Sugar Cube Corner. She glanced at Dash for a second as she kept reading, taking notice of the discomfort growing in her magenta eyes. She kept reading. Dear Diary, How long has it been since I've talked to you? Days, months, a year? Anyway, I found my next victim since I couldn't find Twilight at first. I settled on Rainbow Dash, and couldn't bring myself to kill her yet. So I decided to wait. Since I can't find Twi, or feel like killing Dash yet, I decided to settle on something else. I'm going to pay a visit to Applejack after I finish off Lyra. She knows my face, she's seen my work, so thus I have to end her misery. This is gonna be so much fun! I tell her. All she does is scream and spit at me, struggling to get free. Its too bad that Twilight couldn't be here. I imagine that she's being a friend and helping me, and that she's still getting used to all the cutting. Sometimes I shout when nopony's around " FUCK LOGIC I'M PINKAMENA DIANE FUCKING PIE!" , and then I go upstairs for a milkshake. I've even started making dolls out of the furs of my victims. So at least their not really gone to me. Dash would of made a nice addition, I think I'll stuff her instead, that way she's can never really leave me. She'll be with me forever...... Twilight stopped at that paragraph and stepped out on to the balcony to catch her breath. Dash followed her to make sure she was ok. She put a hoof around Twilight's neck and hugged her close. She wasn't going to lose her to the monster that Pinkie had become. A panicked scream echoed through the streets of the town and up to the three mares' ears. It was Rarity's scream, Twi and Dash knew it all too well. The two of them and Celestia decided to see what the commotion was about. What they found was nothing less then disparaging. Scootaloo was standing over Sweetie Belle with a scalpel in one hoof, and Rarity too terror stricken to do anything to save her little sister. Before Scootaloo could bring the blade down on the creamy off white coated filly, Twilight used a restraining spell to keep her locked in place as Celestia summoned two of the Royal Guard that accompanied them, and took the orange filly pegasus into custody. As the spell was dropped so they could arrest her, she turned to see Rainbow Dash staring at her with the most pain stricken look ever. Scootaloo's eyes shrunk when it finally occured to her what she had almost done. She thought that Pinkie had killed Dash, and for that her world had been shrouded in darkness. But seeing Dash alive, standing there dumbstruck as to why Scoots would attack one of her own friends. That was when she realized that Pinkie had only used her. With Dash, it was different, she loved her like a sister. She would of never asked Scoots to go through with anything like this. Her mind was on the verge of shattering in to a million pieces, and it was all due to Pinkie, or better yet, Pinkamena she finally understood. She didn't fight the Guards as they took her away. She just hoped that Rainbow Dash wouldn't completely abandon her now. Dash turned to Celestia,"I know what it looked like, but I bet I can get it out of her why she attacked Sweetie,", and with the Princess' nod, Dash left with Twilight to get Scoots to tell them why in the buck did she try to kill Sweetie Belle. Dash must of realized the pain Scoots saw in her eyes, that was one reason she didn't resist against the Guards. They found her taken to the CMC's clubhouse. Apparently she asked the guards to watch her there, to which they hesitantly acknowledged her request. As Twi and Dash approached the guards stepped aside. They had been sent orders a moment ago to allow the two mares to question the suspect. "Why?", was the first question out of Dash's mouth, and Scoots could see she was hurt by what she had just witnessed back at the Carousel Boutique. She wasn't sure how to answer her. But she pulled it together, they deserved that much. At least Dashie did. "She told me she had killed you, that you lied about your friendship, I felt like she was the only one left that could care for me.." the small pegasus filly started to choke up, before she could finish another sentence she felt a familiar warmth up against her. It was Rainbow. Scootaloo began to cry into Dash's cyan colored fur, clutching her waist with tiny orange hooves. Little did they know was that the horror was only beginning. Pinkamena had escaped after knocking out both of the guards assigned with escorting her to the local jail in Ponyville. They'd learn, she thought. They'd all learn. "Ohhh... Dashieeeee....." A voice whispered in the Darkness. "Iiii'mmm cooomming....." it finished, trailing off into the darkness that was falling upon Ponyville as the moon was brought out from its resting place. There was one snag. A certain Princess of the Night had become aware of somepony's location. And was going to make sure she never touched another pony for a long time.
